info_outline Ep. 91: Danny's Bed - A Haunted Tale From SavannahScary Savannah and Beyond
This week we’re talking about a somewhat obscure Savannah ghost story. Danny’s Bed is an antique bed that seems to be tied to the mysterious seven year old boy ghost known as Danny. Danny is not a fan of others having his favorite piece of furniture, though, as the unfortunate family who purchases it finds out. It seems Danny brings his friends to visit when he’s in town… You can learn more in the book written by Al Cobb titled “Danny’s Bed: A Tale of Ghosts and Poltergeists in Savannah.” On What We’re Watching we talk about the 2017 Comedy / Sci-Fi movie “Space Babes from...

info_outline Show Update and miscellaneous 5/26/24Scary Savannah and Beyond
This is an update regarding our show. We've been going since Halloween 2021 and haven't missed issuing an episode every Sunday since then. This has been a lot of fun and we love doing it, but we've come to the point where we need to step back a little and take a little break. We've decided to take a Summer break, so to speak, from regularly scripted episodes. This will be until August of this year. We're still going to release our bi-weekly police blotter as scheduled during this time. We need a break to rest and recharge for all of the new stories we want to keep bringing you. We're not...
